Originally posted by Captain Falcon Or rather the position they have begun to hold in public discourse.
People like Jordan B Peterson, Sam Harris, Gad Saad, Niel Degrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and so on.
For one thing, it's obvious that these people believe that their specialist knowledge translates into general intelligence, which is absolutely not true.
For example Gad Saad is an evolutionary psychologist (a field which itself borders on pseudoscience) and commentates on immigration issues (he is blatantly biased on the issue of Muslim immigration and barely hides it), and absolutely fails to grasp or acknowledge the difference in the situations between the refugee and immigration situation in Europe Vs in America, and refuses to address the literal logic shortfalls in his view.
Jordan Peterson is a different kind of weirdo, he unironically uses words like "kekistani" and very specifically has both acknowledged that he cannot rationally justify his religious beliefs, and yet cannot acknowledge that his religious beliefs are irrational. Additionally he's so entrenched in his ideological warfare that he has made any concession towards the left into a matter of pride, and denied it as such, even though he has acknowledged the need for things like affirmative action and gender quotas in certain capacities.
And so on.
My problem isn't with them existing, because they have a right to exist and voice their opinions (although I wish they critically evaluated their own opinions, which are obviously coloured with the bias of their agenda), but the fact that these figures have turned into new world God figures, where dummies will listen to them and take them at their word without ever critically evaluating their views. None of them are an authority on 99% of the shit they talk about. It's always disheartening when I see someone like Sean Carrol (who is an excellent science popularizer in his own right) taking on an actual philosopher in philosophical debate, get rekt and refuse to concede but instead choose to insist upon an already defeated science-jacketed philosophical refrain. It's dumb. You're a scientist. You're losing this debate. Give something up to the philosopher.
dont listen to him, hes a saracen. -

and lets not forget age.
age differences are very significant. you may look more or less the same as you were once upon a time but becos you've reached a certain age, people are going to treat you very differently.
i used to be that cool brother that every kids in the neighborhood like to be friends with and do shows and tells ....
but now twenty years later i'm just an old pesky uncle whose hands they have to keep swatting away as if their some bothersome flies. -

Originally posted by Lanny No, that's the number of posts on a certain day, a peak in June. Average for june was around 700 per day, meaning around 20K posts were made in the month of June. Mind you that includes spam and stuff, but this place gets a decent amount of activity, even if it's a little, uhhh, unique in style.
no, i was trying to point out that 1400p/d on or around june 21.
was that real posting or just spam and front page flushes ??? -

same with prostitutes.
each time you seek services from prostitutes, your unions are ordained by a pimp and pieces of paper [bills].they still need stuff from you, sleep with you, need money or some other form of services by their husbands. She's a life partner (or I was hoping.. which we agreed on trying it out) but no marriage again for me. Plus I'm not legally divorced yet. I waited 2.5 years not dating anyone before I dated one lady then this lady.
Don't call her a whore. she first took me in because she didn't want me sleeping in my van. then she and I got flirty and hit it off.
well even in Acting Class.. most women flirt with the guys and vice versa. there are no permanent relationships .. just fooling around when you're pared up for a 2 week project. I never fooled with anyone but I've seen it with others. It's a good place to meet pretty women.
you still havent answered : you love her or what ??? or do you satyed just becos she took you in ????
like adopted feral doggs. -

why not ???
she does sleep with you, does she not ???? and she sleeps with you to get something in return from you, yeass ?????
well, that makes her a prostitute, a whore by any other name. maybe not a professional prostitute cos your not paying her in cold hard cash ... but a prostitute nonetheless.
